Apparent Transverse Motion of Light Bridges Coupled to Coronal Loop Dynamics
Atul Bhat, Sreejith Padinhatteeri, J. M. Borrero +1
Light bridges are commonly observed in active regions and are interpreted as signatures of magnetoconvective processes in sunspots. Several studies have attempted to classify them…
Chromospheric and photospheric properties of sunspots as inferred from Stokes inversions under magneto-hydrostatic and non-local-thermodynamic equilibrium
A. Vicente Arevalo, J. M. Borrero, I. Milic +3
Sunspots are crucial for exploring how magnetic fields and plasma flows interact in the solar atmosphere, spanning from the stable photosphere to the shock-dominated chromosphere.…
The role of the Lorentz force in sunspot equilibrium
J. M. Borrero, A. Pastor Yabar, M. Schmassmann +3
Sunspots survive on the solar surface for time-scales ranging from days to months. This requires them to be in an equilibrium involving magnetic fields and hydrodynamic forces. Unf…
Solar internetwork magnetic fields: Statistical comparison between observations and MHD simulations
Elias Ebert, Ivan Milic, Juan Manuel Borrero
Although the magnetic fields in the quiet Sun account for the majority of the magnetic energy in the solar photosphere, inferring their exact spatial distribution, origin, and evol…
